You sit in Accra and award contracts for the sweeping of the Bongo market on behalf of the Bongo District Assembly and pay from Accra when the work is not done. This is the problem you have to resolve if you truly want to strengthen local governance. Introducing nasty NDC and NPP fights at the assembly level will not resolve this.
I WILL VOTE NO!

I don't understand why people like Mannaseh think it's okay for nasty NDC and NPP to be elected and rule the country from the top but absolutely wrong to involve them in our local elections even though they are already involved and decides what happens locally from the so called rotten top? Oh politics
Nana Ewusi or whatever they call you. You are a ***barred word*** ***barred word***. ***barred word*** like you should be kept in the zoo like Ota Benga. If you cant read and understand, then you have to educate yourself. No one will take up that responsibility. ***barred word***!! Did you not read the example he gave or u didn't understand that one to? Test!!!!@@
Thank you Manasseh. Always on point. I hope the politicians will listen. At the local level we need a system/structure that will make it easy for knowlegeable and skilled persons committed to the people to offer themselves as MMDCEs, assemblymen, and unit committee members. The local governance and financial Acts and LIs should also be revised to have provisions that will tie the hands of the President, his ministers and very senior public servants from attempting to decide for local assemblies how they should use their allocations for activities that are their core functions. Governments should only ensure that local assembly resources are used efficiently and for the right purposes.
If this is what informs your decision to vote for a No ,then it's a summary of your shallowness in thinking about issues.Are the party's not involve in the assembly already? This is what you as a so called journalist should be investigating to informing the public than usual attention seeking comments.
